11 Using your dishwasher Before first use o Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained within this booklet. o Fill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water softener level. o Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid doseage. Filling with dishwasher salt IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage the water softener. o Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during the salt filling process. o Open the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it. o Turn the salt container cap anticlockwise and remove it. o Pour 1 litre of water into the water softener container. IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill the container with salt for the first time. o Pour salt into the salt container, using the funnel that is supplied with the appliance. You should add approximately 1.2 kg of salt into the container. o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the container is filled with the necessary level of salt. o Refit and fully tighten the salt container cap. 11

12 o The salt required warning light will go out approximately 2-6 hours after you have filled the salt container with salt. When the salt required warning light comes on again, then you should follow the filling with dishwasher salt procedure again. IMPORTANT: you do not need to pour 1 litre of water into the container when you subsequently fill the water softener with salt. Setting the water softener level It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to the table below). To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you should:- o Remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the salt container. o Locate the ring with an arrow on it that is located on the salt container. (See figure opposite). o When you first receive your appliance, the arrow will be pointing to the minus symbol. Using the water hardness chart, you should turn the ring anti-clockwise to the setting that is appropriate for your water hardness. o The middle selector position is halfway between the minus and plus symbols. o If your water is already sufficiently soft or you are going to exclusively use the 3 in 1 wash program in conjunction with 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets, then the ring can be turned to any position. However the salt container should not be filled with salt. 12

13 Filling with rinse aid The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed. o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aids. o The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door, next to the detergent dispenser. o To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. Then slowly pour in liquid rinse aid, the rinse aid dispenser will hold approximately 140 ml of rinse aid. o You should continue to fill with rinse aid, until the level indicator turns completely black. o Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth. o Replace the cap and turn it clockwise until it locks into position. o You should refill the rinse aid dispenser when the snowflake symbol appears in the display window. Setting the rinse aid level The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid setting, until you find a level that gives the best results. o On the first wash cycle, we would recommend that the rinse aid level is set to number 2. o If you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to the next number. 13

14 o You should continue to adjust the rinse aid level upwards until you get no water spots. o If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash cycle. Turn the arrow clockwise and lower the setting to the next number. Filling with dishwasher detergent The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash cycle (apart from the Soak and Rinse wash programs). o Open the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser and place the detergent inside of the dispenser. o Only one detergent tablet should be placed in the dispenser at any one time. If you are using detergent powder or liquid, you should follow the detergent manufacturer s recommendations. o Shut the detergent dispenser lid and position the clip on the outer edge, so that it holds the lid shut. o At the beginning of a wash cycle the clip will open and the tablet/powder/liquid will enter the dishwasher. 3 in 1 tablets before first use IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets, then you MUST follow this set up process before using the appliance. o Open the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it. o Turn the salt container cap anticlockwise and remove it. o Pour 1 litre of water into the water softener container. o Refit and fully tighten the salt container cap. 14

15 o To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. o Turn the arrow clockwise until it moves past the number 1, this deactivates the rinse aid dispenser. o IMPORTANT: There is no need to put rinse aid or dishwasher salt in the appliance if you are using 3 in 1 detergent tablets. You must ONLY use the 3 in 1 wash program when using 3 in 1 tablets. If you wish to switch from 3 in 1 tablets to a detergent that doesn t include rinse aid and salt, you must fill your dishwasher with salt and rinse aid. Please follow the relevant sections in the instruction booklet. You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into the salt container, as you will have already done this previously. Loading the upper basket The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light dishware, such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled). 1. Cups 2. Small serving bowl 3. Large serving bowl 4. Glasses 5. Saucers 6. Dish 7. Dessert dishes o You should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle. o Use the diagram above as a guide on the most appropriate way to load the upper basket. 15

16 Adjusting the upper basket Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the upper basket. The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by pulling the handle on either side of the basket upwards until it clips into place. Position 1 (upper position) o For accommodating items such as glass tumblers and wine glasses. Wine glasses should be placed upside down, so that the stem of the glass rests in one of the grooves on the side flap. Position 2 (lower position) o For accommodating additional tumblers, cups and mugs. You can also place small, expresso sized cups on top of the side racks. Care should be taken to make sure that there is enough clearance between the top of the cups placed on top of the side racks and the underneath of the dishwasher interior. o Please note that when the basket is in the upper position, you cannot have the side flaps in a raised position. Otherwise the basket will not slide back into the interior of the dishwasher. With upper basket raised With upper basket lowered Maximum height of Maximum height of dishes (upper basket) dishes (lower basket) 19 cm 30 cm 24 cm 25 cm 16

17 IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray arms can move freely when items have been loaded into the baskets. IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when placing long stemmed glassware, such as champagne glasses in the upper basket. If they are not positioned correctly, then there is a risk that they may topple over when the upper basket is pushed in our pulled out. Loading the lower basket The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket. 7. Dessert dishes 8. Serving plate 9. Side plates 10. Dinner plates 11. Cutlery basket o Saucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their bases upwards. o Deep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off. o The bottom rack has prongs at the rear of the basket that can be folded downwards, to allow for easier loading of larger saucepans and serving bowls. The cutlery basket Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower basket. o For the best washing performance, cutlery should be placed through the slots in the top of the cutlery basket. 17

18 o For ease of loading, it is possible to split apart the outer section of the cutlery basket. However this outer section should not be placed individually into the cutlery basket, it should always be attached to the main basket. IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to fall through the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this may cause damage to the spray arm and/or the cutlery. If the bottom of the basket begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall through, you should replace the cutlery basket. Loading dishes and cutlery Household cloths, sponges or any other object that may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a dishwasher. o Remove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans, prior to loading dishes in the appliance. o Once the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arms can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any item, then you should rearrange the wash load. o Cups, glasses, pans etc should all be loaded with their bases upwards, so that water does not collect inside of them. o Cutlery and dishes should not cover each other, otherwise you may get poor wash results. o Do not allow glasses to touch inside the dishwasher, otherwise damage may occur. o Small objects can be placed inside of the cutlery basket. 18

19 The following items are NOT suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:- o Cutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china. o Plastic items that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery that consists of glued parts that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery items or crockery that are bonded. o Copper or pewter items. o Lead crystal glass. o Wooden platters o Synthetic fibre items. The following items are not always suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:- o Stoneware should only be washed if the manufacturer of the item has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Plastic items (such as lunchboxes) should only be washed if the manufacturer has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Glazed crockery may fade with repeated washing inside of a dishwasher. o Items made of silverware or aluminium can discolour when washed inside a dishwasher. o Any food residue should be removed from silver items immediately, as this can also result in discolouration. o Certain types of glass may become dull or cloudy after a large number of washes. 19

22 The 3 in 1 wash program IMPORTANT: Before using the 3 in 1 wash program, make sure that you have followed the 3 in 1 tablets before first use section. Make sure that the water softener has not got any salt in it. If there is still salt in it, then turn the water softener to its lowest setting. Make sure that the rinse aid dispenser has been set so it does not dispense rinse aid. THIS WASH PROGRAM MUST BE SELECTED IF YOU ARE USING 3 IN 1 DETERGENT. IF YOU USE ANY OTHER WASH PROGRAM WITH 3 IN 1 TABLETS, THEN YOU MAY GET POOR WASH RESULTS. o Hang the 3 in 1 tablet container on the underneath of the upper basket, in the position shown on the diagram. o Check that the 3 in 1 tablet container is not going to foul the upper spray arm, by rotating the spray arm around slowly. If it does hit the 3 in 1 tablet container, you should move the container. o Put a 3 in 1 tablet inside the 3 in 1 tablet container. Load the appliance as normal and select the 3 in 1 wash program. If your wash results are poor, then we would recommend that you use a dishwasher detergent that doesn t have rinse aid and salt included in the tablet. Fill the appliance with rinse aid and dishwasher salt, then set them so they dispense the appropriate amount for your water hardness. 22

Cleaning and maintenance IMPORTANT: The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. The filter system Your appliance is fitted with three levels of filtering; these are located in the base of the dishwasher for ease of access. 1) Main filter 2) Coarse filter 3) Fine filter Main filter- Food and soil particles are trapped by this filter and pulverised by a special jet on the lower spray arm. This debris is then washed down the drain. 24

25 Coarse filter- Fine filter- Larger items such as pieces of bone or glass, which could clog the drain are trapped in this filter. This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a wash cycle. IMPORTANT: Whilst the filtering system is efficient, your dishwasher is not a waste disposal unit. All items being washed inside of the dishwasher, should have food scraps removed from them before being loaded into the appliance. Cleaning the filters For best performance and results, the entire filter assembly should be thoroughly cleaned regularly (ideally after each wash cycle). o Lift the handle of the filter and gently lift out the main and coarse filter, then rinse out these sections under a tap to remove any food debris that remains in them. o Pull out the fine filter and also rinse this under the tap to remove any food debris that is trapped in it. o Place the fine filter back in its original position. o Place the main and coarse filter back into their original positions in the base of the dishwasher. IMPORTANT: THE DISHWASHER SHOULD NEVER BE SET ON A WASH CYCLE WITHOUT THE FILTERS BEING INSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE. 25

26 Cleaning the spray arms The spray arms should be cleaned regularly, to prevent hard water deposits from clogging the spray arm jets and bearings. o To remove the spray arm, unscrew the nut and take out the washer that sits on top of the spray arm. o Gently pull upwards to remove the spray arm. o Wash the spray arm in warm, soapy water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. o Rinse the spray arm thoroughly and then reassemble the spray arm back in its original position. Cleaning the control panel IMPORTANT: Do not use any abrasive cleaner or household polish on either the control panel or operating parts. Wipe over the control panel using a brand new damp cloth with warm water. Cleaning the door o To clean the edge around the outside of the door, you should use a soft, damp cloth only. o To prevent water from penetrating the door lock or electrical components, DO NOT use a spray cleaner of any kind. o DO NOT use any abrasive cleaner or scouring pads on the inner or outer surfaces, as they may cause damage to the surfaces. 26

29 General troubleshooting PROBLEM Dishwasher doesn t run Drain pump doesn t stop Noise Suds in the tub POSSIBLE CAUSES Fuse blown or the circuit breaker has tripped Power supply is not switched on Water pressure is low Overflow Some audible sounds are normal Utensils are not secure in the baskets or something small has dropped into the basket Motor hums Improper detergent use Spilled rinse aid WHAT TO DO Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Remove any other appliances that are sharing the same circuit with the dishwasher. Make sure that the dishwasher is turned on and that the door is closed securely. Make sure that the power cord is fully plugged into the wall socket. Check that the water supply is connected properly and that the water is turned on. The system is designed to detect an overflow. If it does, then it will run the drain pump continuously when there is power to the appliance. You will get a level of operating noise during a wash cycle, in particular when food is being removed from items and when the detergent dispenser places the tablet into the tub. Ensure that everything is loaded as per Baumatic s loading instructions. If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a period of time, then you should make sure that the appliance is set on a wash program once a week. Otherwise the seal around motor may dry out and cause noise. Ensure that you are not using 3 in 1 detergent tablets, in conjunction with rinse aid and salt. Always wipe up any excess rinse aid or rinse aid spillages immediately. Stained tub interior Dishes are not fully dried Detergent with colourant was used Rinse aid dispenser is empty Use a detergent without colourant.
